The secret bargain shop where retailers like River Island & Ted Baker send discontinued, NEW stock for next to nothing
A WOMAN has revealed that she has found a secret bargain shop where you can get brand new clothes from big retailers, for less.
Savvy shopper Ella explained that in the bargain store, in Wales, you will find new items of clothing, as well as shoes and bags, for cut-prices.
When browsing the store, Ella managed to get her hands on a variety of bits from River Island – and even spotted buys from Ted Baker too.
Ella took to social media to alert fashionista to the shop – Newlife, a fashion store in Newport, Wales.
Newlife gives bargain lovers the chance to grab high-street brands at hugely discounted prices, all while helping a charity supporting disabled children in need.
Newlife Newport is the ninth across the UK to join the Newlife family and has a wide range of fashion available for men, women and children – giving shoppers a huge range to choose from, all under one roof.
The store raises vital funds for its charity services by working with over 300 leading retailers and manufacturers across the UK and Europe who donate items that would otherwise be destined for landfill, mainly customer returns, faulty items or end of line products.
Thrilled at her finds, Ella urged shoppers to visit the store, as she said: “Now if you don’t know about this shop called Newlife in Newport, you need to get to know.
“So when the UK’s biggest retailers don’t want to sell their stock anymore, or it goes out of season, this is where all the brand new stock goes for heavily discounted prices!
“There’s such a variety of things in here, you’ve really got to take a look.”
Not only did Ella spot a River Island feather blouse, but she also found a Ted Baker jacket too, as she added: “I found this gorgeous River Island blouse for only £6.99.
“There was Ted Baker stuff in there.
“And I actually picked up and went home with this lovely blazer from River Island for only £5.”
She also spotted a range of other goodies, as she continued: “They’ve got shoes in here, boots, accessories, handbags, scarves, hats.
“I ended up buying four River Island items for only £20.”

And if you’re looking for kids’ fashion or plus-size clothes, Ella later explained: “They have all their clothes sectioned out in size category. They have a 16+ section.”
She also wrote: “You’re welcome girlies.”

Social media users were impressed at the store’s cheap offerings and many were desperate to take a visit.
One person said: “Omg I need to go!!!”
Another added: “Thank you, I will definitely be paying a visit.”
Meanwhile, other bargain hunters shared their thoughts on the store.
One fashion fan commented: “I love this shop. I’ve got so many bargains from there.”
Whilst someone else chimed in: “Buy all my clothes from here.”
At the same time, another shopper penned: “Have you seen the bargain boxes in there for £5? They have mystery boxes in various sizes and they’re quite good.”
One eager visitor asked: “Is there plenty of parking there?”, to which Ella beamed: “Yes, loads of parking!”
Meanwhile, someone else asked: “Is this Newport in South Wales? If so.. my plans for this weekend are sorted.”
To this, Ella explained: “Yes South Wales! Just by Maeglas industrial estate.”
Not only this, but many shoppers tagged their friends and loved ones, desperate to arrange a trip to Newlife.
One shopper alerted a TikTok user and penned: “We should go.”
Whilst a second asked a bargain hunter: “Shopping trip?”
